Hello everyone, 3 weeks ago I was in an accident and required surgery. My visa runs out in early May but the surgeon wants to see me 3 days after my visa expires. He wrote a letter confirming I have an appointment with him. I have been told if I give this letter to immigration they can give me a months extension and not have to go to Lao. Can anyone confirm this and the extension please.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A user seeks clarification on obtaining a visa extension in Thailand for a medical appointment that occurs after their visa has expired. Comments suggest that while a letter from a doctor may facilitate the process, obtaining an extension specifically for medical reasons requires proper documentation at a local immigration office. Advice includes ensuring the doctor provides a detailed letter confirming the medical need and the inability to travel.
